The remix was made available to 'celebrate' the US election. Buyers at the Shadow online shop up to election day received a vinyl disc shaped like (US Vice President) Dick Cheney's head (and with added horns, fangs, and red eyes), containing a remix of 'The Gloaming'.

In other scary news, loungepop piano basher Jamie Cullum is to release his version of Radiohead's 1995 single 'High and Dry'.
